Overview of DSL Router Configuration
The Hotwire DSL Routers support various customer premises distribution
networks that contain IP forwarding devices or routers, in addition to locally
attached hosts or subnets. The Hotwire DSL Router has an IP Routing Table that
contains IP address and subnet mask information.
The DSL router supports Internet Protocol as specified in RFC 791 and Internet
Control Message Protocol (ICMP) as specified in RFCs 792 and 950. The DSL
router acts as a router (or gateway) as defined in RFC 791.
For more information on supported RFCs, refer to Appendix C,
Traps & MIBs.
Interfaces for the DSL Router
The Hotwire DSL Router has two interfaces:
H DSL Interface
The Hotwire DSL Router interface type is determined by the model number:
— 6301 and 6302 are Hotwire IDSL Routers
— 6341 and 6342 are Hotwire SDSL Routers
— 6371 is a Hotwire RADSL Router
The DSL interface has a unique MAC address assigned before shipping.
